Based on my research, Beneprotein is an instant protein powder created by Nestle. Its formulated out of whey protein isolate and soy lecithin. The serving size for one scoop (or packet) is 7 grams. This product is formulated so that it can be used in feeding tubes. It's also possible to mix the powder with a variety of foods and beverages to increase protein content.

Nutritional content:

-(35 mg) of potassium + (15 mg) of phosphorus in 1 scoop.
-1 serving provides 15 (mg) of sodium.
-1 serving provides (30 mg) of calcium.

Note: Beneprotein is a kosher product as well as both gluten-free and lactose-free (According to product information). If you have a milk allergy be cautious when using Beneprotein since whey is one of the two main proteins contained in milk. A milk allergy is different than a lactose intolerance.

I hope the additional info helps!
